Overview

Backup4all is an award-winning data backup software for Windows. This backup utility was designed to protect your valuable data from partial or total loss by automating backup tasks, password protecting and compressing it to save storage space. This backup application is feature rich and offers an intuitive interface making all features easily accessible for both beginners and professionals.

With Backup4all you can easily backup to multiple destinations:

Local
Back-up to DVD, CD, Blu-ray, HD-DVD, or other removable media (such as USB drives).

Using the wizard you can easily set up any backup configurations you wish. You can define powerful file filters and schedule your backups any way you want. Once a backup is performed, you can see what files changed since the last backup using the explorer-like tree view or you can read the statistics about the next backup execution. With many other backup software programs, files that are in use during the backup may not get backed up successfully because they are locked to prevent programs from modifying the data.

With Backup4all you can back-up open or locked files such as databases, MS Outlook personal folder (.pst), Outlook Express mail archives (dbx files) and others. When defining a backup, there is also the option to run predefined backups, such as My Documents, My Pictures or other custom folder. You can opt to receive backup status updates via email on success, warning, error. Backup4all allows you to create your own predefined bakup using plugins. You can load plugins for either backup or restoring specific program settings or custom data.

This backup application has ZIP64 support (can create backups over 4GB) and creates standard zip files, meaning that you can access it with any zip compatible utility. It comes with its own built-in CD, DVD and Blu-ray burning support so you can easily backup to DVD, CD, Blu-ray or HD-DVD. Just set the destination to DVD, CD, Blu-ray or HD-DVD and execute the backup job. However, if you prefer, you can use the UDF format.

Backup4all comes in four editions: Portable, Lite, Standard and Professional. There is also a special version which is Backup4all Portable which is a version that can only be installed on portable USB/Firewire devices.

Features:

Smart Backup Type
To improve backup speed and efficiently make use of the space allocated for your backups, Backup4all uses a unique system that decides automatically what backup type to use for your files. This unique system is the "Smart Backup option" which optimizes the backup process and reduces the decision time on comparing various backups or what type of backup suits a backup scheme.

Cloud Backups
With Backup4all cloud backups are a synch giving you more options other than the popular Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox but more like Amazon S3, Microsoft Azure, BOX, Hidrive, Hubic and over 37 Amazon S3 compatible destinations (i.e. Cisco, Google Cloud Storage, Hitachi, Tiscali, Verizon). Any user of Backup4all will benefit from the most powerful infrastructure for protecting online data.

Block-level Backup
Block-level Backup speeds up the backup process of large files as it "only" backups up the modified blocks of data instead of the entire file. Thus if you have a backup job for a large Outlook profile, whenever you get a new email, Backup4all knows to backup only the bits of data that are modified in that Outlook profile rather than the whole PST file.

Notifications
Backup4all shows messages when certain action occur (i.e. when backup job is done or an error occurs). These are shown via a pop-up window or be silently saved in the "Messages" panel.

​

Intuitive Ribbon Interface
The Getting Started window allows you to easily define/run backup jobs or restore backed up data. Switching to the Explore View, you can see all the files/folders that are in the backup job and the new files that will be stored at the next backup execution. You can sort and search the file tree in Explore view. You can start this backup application at windows startup or minimize it to the system tray.

Backup locked or open files
Backup4all uses the Volume Shadow Copy service that allows you to back up local open files from NTFS partitions. Now you can backup your emails and settings without closing Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express or other email clients.

File and Folder Filters
Powerful file and folder filtering engine with lots of options to filter by attribute, size, date, name and type). You can create filters using a combination of restrictions and you can define separate filters for inclusion and exclusion.

Predefined Filters
Filters can now be added through the Options window, and once set you can use them in any backup job. A predefined filter of a specific backup job is also automatically modified on that particular backup job "if" a change in the predefined filter set is done.

Backup directly to CD, DVD, Blu-ray
This backup software comes with its own built-in CD, DVD, HD-DVD and Blu-ray burning support. Just set the destination to the CD, DVD, HD-DVD or Blu-ray disc and execute the backup job. However, if you prefer not to use Backup4all's built-in burning engine, you can use 3rd party packet writing software (such as DirectCD or InCD). Backup4all also has the possibility to erase CD-RW/DVD-RW/HD DVD-RW/BD-RE media.

Built-in Scheduler
You can easily setup a powerful scheduler using the available scheduler configurations to make unattended backups. Backups can also be scheduled to run when the computer shuts down.

Email notifications
Backup4all can be configured to send custom emails after a backup is finished whether it be a successful backup, with error or with warning. Additional options is also given to attach a backup log file to the email sent and allows sending to several email addresses.

SFTP backup software
Backup4all can backup to SFTP, a destination combining the security of remotely stored backups, with secure file transfer protocol. Your important data is transferred to the SFTP backup server using a secure network connection to avoid risk of data interception.

​

Pause/Resume or Stop operation
The backup operation now supports pausing and resuming, so running a backup job can be interrupted and continued at a later time. There is also a Stop operation now, that when pressed will not Cancel the backup, but instead will save everything until that point when it was pressed.

Automatic updates
Backup4all can now check for updates either manually or automatically at a scheduled date. This allows you to better stay in touch with the latest development of Backup4all.

Backup catalog file
Backup4all stores a summary snapshot of the file and folder information into a backup catalog file (".bkc") each time a backup is executed. This catalog is stored in a different file than the backup itself and it allows Backup4all to keep track of the backed up files. The advantage of using a catalog is faster backup execution. Another advantage is that you can run Backup4all together with other backup applications because they will not interfere with each other.

FTP Backup
Backup4all allows backup to remote locations using FTP service (with SSL support, active/passive transfer modes, firewall support, XCRC tests). You just have to select FTP as destination of the backup, enter the FTP configurations and you are now ready to backup!

Backup Destination
Backup4all allows you to store the backup in a local folder, on another computer in the same LAN, on media such as: CD-R, CD-RW, DVD±RW (single/dual layer), DVD-ROM, HD DVD-R, HD DVD-RW, HD DVD-ROM, BD-R, BD-RE (single/dual layer) on USB drives or other removal media, or remote destination.

Create shortcut for backup job/group
Backup4all allows you to create a shortcut of a backup job or backup group to a desired location and once created, you just have to double-click the shortcut and the backup job will automatically run. You can make it a "one click backup" if you place it in the Quick Launch menu.

File warnings
File warnings are displayed to the user during the execution of the backup (if opted to) and it is written to log file.

Customized ZIP Names
You can customize prefixes for the zip archives which store your backup versions as well as support for file/folder paths longer than the standard 260 character parsing.

Snapshots
Mirror backup type makes an exact copy of the selected files and folders (copying NTFS permissions and alternate streams), including empty folders as well. Optionally you can choose to zip the backup files individually.

Statistics
You can actually see the number of files that will be processed at next backup (very useful when you have a

Disk Spanning
Automated support for splitting your backup between many removable disks or even on the same media. Size of the zip archives can also be specified.

​

Command Line
A command line version of the backup application is available.

Program security
Backup4all offers an option to lock its interface so settings are protected. To access it a password is required.

New Backup Wizard / Restore Wizard
This backup software provides step-by-step instructions to create a new backup job by selecting Where, What, How and When to backup. Likewise you can restore backed-up data step-by-step. You can choose the version of the file/files you want restored, filter them to restore "only" what you need or restore versions of a backup in reference to a specific date.

Easy File and Folder Selection
You can browse a folder tree to select several files and folders as source of the backup or you can include or exclude them individually. Multiple files/folders can be added as Sources at once (drag-and-drop supported).

Standard Zip Compression and zip64 support
If the zip file size is less than 2 Gbytes, Backup4all creates standard zip files. This format is compatible with any zip utility available on the market. Unlike other backup software, for zip files greater than 2 Gbytes, Backup4all uses zip64 technology (which allows unlimited zip file size).

Test backup
Backup4all tests the backups using CRC32 ensuring that the files have been backed-up properly and that the backup made is safe and secure. When needed backup integrity test can be done at a later time.

Backup Plugins
Starting with version 3.10 is possible to load plugins to backup/restore the settings of specific programs. A plugin is actually an XML file that once imported in Backup4all adds a predefined backup. For instance, a backup plugin for Mozilla Firefox, when loaded, will automatically add in the Predefined Backup list an entry for Firefox, so when defining a new backup job if that’s selected, the Firefox profiles will be added as source for the new backup.

Thanks for the giveaway."WHAT backup software are you currently using and WHY do you want to win a Backup4all Professional license?"
Currently I use EASEUS Todo Backup Free for backup and I want to win Backup4all Professional license for backup of important information and data. The program has a convenient and intuitive interface, a large set of settings to fine-tune the program. The program uses ZIP compression, can work with network storage devices, as well as write data to a CD/DVD or FTP server. And also has automatic reservation with built-in scheduler.

"WHAT backup software are you currently using and WHY do you want to win a Backup4all Professional license?"

I am using freeware Macrium Reflect Free and that does not have file/folder backup to name one and also it does not permit backing up to cloud services. I need those additional features to be able to have an effective backup scheme in place. Relying only just one backup application is not good especially these days so I need augmentation and especially one that has Pro features such as Backup4all Professional. Thanks for contest!

Thanks a lot for the giveaway. I am currently using Ashampoo backup Pro and I want to shift to Backup4all as it offers many required features and tools such as back-up to FTP, FTPS and SFTP, support of all four types of backup, backup of files and folders and good encryption. In addition, the built-in scheduler and email notifications are other useful tools

Thanks for the Giveaway!

This utility is ideally designed to protect valuable data and there is password protection too. Its inerface is easily accessible by beginners and professionals. With those favorite features of this software, I am anxious to

Thanks
